R. God is love and in Him there is
no darkness
The human will is not an organ,
We do not see it and yet it can
be that which leads us to intimacy
with God or that by which we
can distance ourselves from God
rebel against God and cause
ourselves misery
God is the Creator we are
the creatures He created us
with a purpose, but He gives
us a will He wants us to
obey Him and choose to love
Him and to give ourselves
to His Plan, but He gives
us this will to choose to
love Him and do His will
or not Out of love He gives
this to us He wants our
will given in love to His
will
One who is under a Master is
to serve the Master
to help them
to do all they can to be
a helper so the Master
can do what they are
trying to do
So Saint Ignatius talked about
the 2 Camps
The one camp we are helping to
build the Kingdom of Christ,
our eternal King
The other camp we are serving
satan who has the
rule oppose the will of God
The fallen angel said
"I will not serve God"
Jesus: I give you a free will
I showed you how I served
My Father to My death
on the cross
The Father and I are one
I served, I gave, I loved
I did the Father's will
I came, the Son of God,
to show you how to
do the Father's will
to show you how to
be sons of God
The Master is God
You can serve God
You can serve satan
Satan wants to take you
to eternal damnation
He tempts you to rebel
with your free will against
the Father's will
You do not see the will
The person arm-wrestling with
those over them is like
a two year old
learning about obedience
to their parents
The Commandments are given
as rules to live by that
will bring you happiness
Children must learn to obey
their parents
Jobs are given and there is
structure
You are put in this world to
work together as one under
authority, which is under
the heavenly Father
I died on the cross
Obeying My Heavenly Father
Being over you
I was over those who
put Me to death
Willful men crucified,
the Son of God
Afraid of losing their power
over men
Power comes from God
You would have no power
if it wasn't given
from God
In Genesis you see Eve
disobeyed God
Eve wanted to be equal to God
Eve did her own will
She opposed the will of God
In this scripture you see
the freedom of man's will
You see the consequence of
sin goes on and on to you
today
You have a wounded human
nature because of this
sin
You must struggle in this
spiritual battle
St. Ignatius gives you the discernment
of spirits
St. Ignatius gives you the 'purpose'
From The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius, by Louis J. Puhl, S.J. p.11
21. SPIRITUAL EXERCISES
Which have as their purpose the conquest of self
and the regulation of one's life in such a way that
no decision is made under the influence of any
inordinate attachment
Jesus: St. Ignatius gives you the 1st Principle and
Foundation
From The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius, by Louis J. Puhl, S.J. p. 12
23. FIRST PRINCIPLE AND FOUNDATION
Man is created to praise, reverence and serve God
our Lord, and by this means to save his soul.
Jesus:
You can rebel against God
who created you by
doing your will opposed to God
Here is the Our Father
Our Father, Who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.
Jesus:
A person can go to a bank and
try to get a job
If a person lies at work
they do not keep their
job
I give you rules to follow
If the commandments are
disobeyed regularly
then the sin can turn
into corruption evil
can take over
In families
In the Church
Men are to live in love
Under God
Obeying God as Master
I am Lord and Master of your lives
God the Father gave the Shepherds of Christ
to help renew the Church
and the world
The purpose of this Movement
is to obey God
to be under God
to put God first
to obey the Commandments of God
to have an organization of
order under God
To have men working united
under God
To have men working in
love
To have servants under
God for His Purpose
for greater purity in
the Church and the
world
Men are to work in love
Men are to work under God
Men are to have the purpose
of the community to
be united doing a certain
purpose
purity
love
renewal
unity
Going out
I give you the Mysteries of
the Rosary to meditate on
Mary is the perfect handmaid
of the Lord
Magnificat
Luke 1: 46-55
And Mary said:
My soul proclaims
the greatness of the Lord
and my spirit rejoices
in God my Saviour;
because he has looked upon
the humiliation of his servant.
Yes, from now onwards
all generations will call me blessed,
for the Almighty
has done great things for me.
Holy is his name,
and his faithful love extends age after age
to those who fear him.
He has used the power of his arm,
he has routed the arrogant of heart.
He has pulled down princes
from their thrones
and raised high the lowly.
He has filled the starving with good things,
sent the rich away empty.
He has come to the help
of Israel his servant,
mindful of his faithful love
according to the promise
he made to our ancestors
of his mercy to Abraham
and to his descendants for ever.
Isaiah 52: 13 - 53: 12
Look, my servant will prosper,
will grow great, will rise to great heights.As many people were aghast at him
he was so inhumanly disfigured
that he no longer looked like a man
so many nations will be astonished
and kings will stay tightlipped
before him,
seeing what had never been told them,
learning what they had not heard before.
Who has given credence
to what we have heard?
And who has seen in it
a revelation of Yahwehs arm?
Like a sapling he grew up before him,
like a root in arid ground.
He had no form or charm to attract us,
no beauty to win our hearts;
he was despised, the lowest of men,
a man of sorrows, familiar with suffering,
one from whom, as it were,
we averted our gaze,
despised, for whom we had no regard.
Yet ours were the sufferings
he was bearing,
ours the sorrows he was carrying,
while we thought of him
as someone being punished
and struck with affliction by God;
whereas he was being wounded
for our rebellions,
crushed because of our guilt;
the punishment reconciling us fell on him,
and we have been healed by his bruises.
We had all gone astray like sheep,
each taking his own way,
and Yahweh brought the acts of rebellion
of all of us to bear on him.
Ill-treated and afflicted,
he never opened his mouth,
like a lamb led to the slaughter-house,
like a sheep dumb before its shearers
he never opened his mouth.Forcibly, after sentence, he was taken.
Which of his contemporaries
was concerned
at his having been cut off
from the land of the living,
at his having been struck dead
for his peoples rebellion?
He was given a grave with the wicked,
and his tomb is with the rich,
although he had done no violence,
had spoken no deceit.It was Yahwehs good pleasure
to crush him with pain;
if he gives his life as a sin offering,
he will see his offspring
and prolong his life,
and through him
Yahwehs good pleasure will be done.After the ordeal he has endured,
he will see the light and be content.
By his knowledge, the upright one,
my servant will justify many
by taking their guilt on himself.Hence I shall give him a portion
with the many,
and he will share the booty
with the mighty,
for having exposed himself to death
and for being counted
as one of the rebellious,
whereas he was bearing the sin of many
and interceding for the rebellious.
